We are lighting the way into spring wedding season with some of our favorite vendors in the industry!! 🕯️💜 We had a great time catching up with familiar faces, meeting new reps in the industry, and having a fabulous time making our very own custom candles! Thank you to all those that were able to join us last week! Let’s start this wedding season strong!! For those that were unable to join us this time around, we will be holding more events like this in the future, we will see you soon!!
